McAffee
Hello world
its been a happy moment to see the same great people is still there
I bought a new XPS 8300 & it comes with 18 months of McAffee
Is it still a bad choice & I should throw away & stay with my AVG, my old faithfull
I also run Spybot S & D, MBAM, & Spyware Blaster, as well as my D-Link router for my firewall
Am always will listen to any suggestion, the Group has to offer
Thanks to you all
Bob
Hi Bob:
Recently I bought an XPS 8300 (nice system!) which came with pre-installed McAfee.
I must tell you that I never activated McAfee and uninstalled as soon as POSSIBLE. I did so, based on my personal history of problems with McAfee (admittedly a long time ago), but also because many problems reported in this forum over the years with this McAfee AV. resisted not well the tests independent websites - I trust, and I understand not why Dell continues to consolidate this annoying with his PC AV.
I can't comment on AVG, I left years ago. I used the free Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE 2.0) on this system, with no regrets.
To be honest, if you are behind a hardware firewall using Windows 7 and practicing safe surfing, I don't think it's important a bunch which AV you use. But I still recommend MSE as the simplest solution.

Satellite T110 - McAffee trial offer
Be wary. I signed up for the first instance of McAfee Security Center on my T110. Then, I received a promotional offer for a full subscription by email to McAfee, which was very good. The problem wasn't that I received a package probably for all customers of the trial then offers another cheaper for customers of the trial of Toshiba. Unfortunately, I got the offer more expensive first and signed for...
Very confused by McAfee.

How did you talk to him about this "McAfee technician? Did you call him

How will I know if there are programs on my PC?
You run McAfee and Microsoft Security Essentials? If so, the answer is easy. Get rid of McAfee!Norton and McAfee are the two least friendly Windows security and swine resource to start programs. My ISP offers the McAfee security suite for free and I refuse to use it.I used to use Avast in conjunction with Windows Defender, (still a decent option), but since MSE became of age, I have used which. MSE is an anti-virus, Anti-Spyware and Anti-Malware program all in one. IMO, it is a program MS got it wrong. And all of these options are freeware.If you choose to use MSE, be sure to remove all the remains of McAfee.
